I went to a metal supplier and got flat aluminum bar that was 1.5” wide and ¼” thick, drilled/countersunk holes and tapped mating holes in the 32” rail to build it out.

Works like a charm.

Cost me $16 to fix the problem

http://www.scoff.ca/?p=1317#respondFri, 13 Oct 2017 15:01:53 +0000http://www.scoff.ca/?p=1317I saw this “Peter Accent Chair” in a store and decided I’ll make a pair. I’ll try my hand at upholstery. It has a bit of shaping going on at the joints.

http://www.scoff.ca/?p=1300#respondSun, 01 Oct 2017 14:56:50 +0000http://www.scoff.ca/?p=1300I got a deal on a used King Indistrial 15″ Planer to replace the older model I have (free upgrade) so I took the truck to pick it up.

I also picked up these 6′ truck ramps, I don’t know why I haven’t thought of them before it would have saved me money on U-Haul trailer rentals. I can dolly things up and down if they’re light enough. This time though the planer was too heavy so I had to slide it down the ramps.

My plan was to put the planer stand between the ramps so half way down the heavy top portion would just slide onto it and save me from liftin it up onto the stand.

http://www.scoff.ca/?p=1287#respondWed, 19 Apr 2017 05:25:56 +0000http://www.scoff.ca/?p=1287This is the best looking Stanley #113 compass plane I’ve seen. This particular one is a type #2 from 1880-1891 and it moves like butter. Nothing stiff or corroded like it was out of the box.
